Container Ship Spill Beach Combing

  • Starting around the beginning of December, I started to find these foam rubber baby mats that I call the flying carpets of the pacific. The reason for that is birds had pecked hundreds of holes in each one of them. They must have rode on them like a flying carpet. Then in the beginning of January I found only on one day these bike helmets. I sent pictures to a person who posts these things on beach combing and, he said other helmets were being found down our Pacific Coastline. Then he gets back to me saying they are being tracked based on where they are being found. Now the manufacturer is reaching out to have some returned for study. I find that pretty cool and will do so soon. As for the rest of the finds just normal lost floats from the Pacific Ocean.

    the fact they are using those helmets to study currents is cool af
    I belive the first time someone thought to do that, it was a container of rubber ducks, and they learned a TON about how the ocean flows.
    Those helmets are so clean because they don't have any surface texture for anything to adhear to. there's nothing for the barnicals to grab onto to start growing on the shell or the plastics.

      We normally have organized beach cleanups in the early spring. Last year was Easter weekend. We need one now because of the recent debris showing up on the Pacific beaches. If we receive a northwesterly blow for a day, we will have much more garbage showing up worse than we have already seen.

    Wow, I've never seen so many floats on the Westport/Grayland beaches. The amount of trash you've found is really sad.
    My grandparents lived in Grayland and a good part of my life has been spent there. We still spend Summers there, I love the place.

    • @seasonaloutdoorswitherin297
      @seasonaloutdoorswitherin297  Před rokem +5

      I find my floats when there is a storm blowing from the northwest and has for a couple of days. I like looking for the glass floats that come in from those storms not the planted ones they put on the beaches in Westport during the spring. I have 13 in my collection. One is a 5 inch rolling pin glass float.

    • @seasonaloutdoorswitherin297
      @seasonaloutdoorswitherin297  Před 8 měsíci +1

      During the winter months I go out during storms and after high tides. The key is to go at dark and. early morning to find stuff. During the daylight hours only on an incoming tide.

    Thank you for sharing this episode. And mega big time thanks for cleaning up the beach.
    Have you talked to the Department of Natural Resources or any of your government municipalities? That are in charge of beaches. And asked them if you can use their dumpsters. For the beach waste that you pick up. It seems like that's the least they can do.

      There is a thin plastic film that is loose on most of the mats and, the birds rode them like flying carpets of the sea. The pecked hundreds of divots making the mats look like craters of the moon. I donated them to the Westports museum .

      The State parks in my area at the beach approaches have mini parks and bathrooms with garbage cans. People do leave the beach trash at the garbage cans and, it is picked up by the park workers. If it is a big block of foam I'll leave that there as well.
